Video to the Coffee Region

The famous coffee region, where you can see how the delicious Colombian coffee is made. A really incredible site of Colombia, full of nature and nice people.It is kinda the little Medellin, just without all the tourists and expats.

​Things To Do

ArmeniaWhile we were in Armenia it we had the opportunity to see how Colombians celebrate the world cup soccer games. It was really fun to see the whole food court screaming, swearing and celebrating during the game. Also, Armenia is a good place to stay for little money and near to the attractions in the coffee region. Find more information about our apartment where we stayed.

PereiraIn my opinion Pereira is gonna be the future Medellin with it's big potential. It's as safe as Medellin but smaller. Pereira is also famous for the good quality cloth factories.

SalentoReally cute and colorful village with it's own special vibe. Although they have a lot tourists, it hasn't lost its uniqueness.

Santa Rosa De CabalA special beautiful central park with the special trees and huge church. It is really a typical Colombian village with its charm, lots of stores, bars and much more. Santa Rosa de Cabal is famous for the hot water springs.Check out the TripAdvisor link for more information.

Parque De La VidaA hidden paradise in the middle of the city.It's a really great place to spend a lazy Sunday with kids and family. We were really surprised about how big this park actually is. It has little waterfalls, a lot of butterflies flying around, ducks, swans, and much more. I really recommend, to go there and see the park by your own, there are a lot nice spots that you can't see on first sight.

Restaurants

Sazon Costeño​PereiraAfter your stay at the coast, you may miss the food. But only flying to the coast to eat their food? Naaaa. I recommend this restaurant to have exactly the Costeño feeling you're looking for but not being even near the coast.

Hotel

Airbnb El NorteA small little apartment that provides everything you need for the time you stay there. Be prepared, that it can get a little fresh during night. There are more than enough sheets if you need some. They do speak English, if your Spanish isn't that too good yet.
